Regarding the Panasonic Lumix DC-G9 camera, I've recorded the following
information as instructed here -
http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php. I'm happy to provide any
other information that might be helpful. I just need instructions on
how to capture that info. I'm not a Linux expert. I have attached the
captured files.
